Can't remember if I'd personally thought of it earlier as a rangestrike variant. Probably not, as other than Devouring Light and Vanquish, most white instants only killed attackers.

Balance check time!

Compared to other Modern {1} cost instants that deal flat damage:

{W} White:
= Rain of Blades: Deals 1 damage to EVERY attacking creature.

{R} Red:
= Inflame: Deals 2 to EVERY creature dealt damage this turn.
= Geistflame: Can target any creature, but only does 1 damage. Flashback for {3}{R}.

= Shard Volley: Can target any creature OR player, and does 3 damage. Must additionally sac a land.
= Lightning Axe: Can target any creature, and does 5 damage. Must additionally discard 1 for pay {5}.
= Needle Drop: Can target any creature OR player that was dealt damage this turn, but only does 1 damage. Draw 1.
= Unstable Footing: Ca... (see all)

Can't hold a candle (pardon the expression) to Red and its plethora of burn, but fits white pretty well.

Garbage, garbage, garbage. That being said, I'm definitely picking this in Limited because it'll get the job done. And I'm giving HeartbreakerStudios five stars for going that extra mile to prove lorendorky wrong. ;)
